Enough students to fill approximately 100 elementary schools will tour Centennial Farm and take part in the Agademics program during the 2003- 2004 season.

Evy Edelo, the Agademics program coordinator, said that about 6,500 fourth, fifth, and sixth graders are expected for the educational project that teaches youths about the origins of food and how agriculture is part of their everyday lives.

The biggest number of visitors—an estimated 55,000 first graders and kindergarteners—will take the popular Centennial Farm tour which gives youngsters a chance to see growing crops and resident livestock. The tours began Sept. 23.
